I really don't want to have to sit through another reinstall tonight. I have a perfectly operational command line environment. If I new which package contained the file that has the error, I'd promptly download and install it over what's there now. I've already downloaded XF86Setup, VGA16,

Well, if you read headers, you can see that I'm writing this from Netscape 4.73 in Linux. It did require XConfigurator, but I still had to find those errors I mentioned for it to work. It seems MandrakeSoft put the SERVER directive _after_ the DRIVER directive in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/Cards+ for the
